My Space Someone on MySpace is bugging/harrassing/threatening me - what can I do about it?
The best thing to do if and when you encounter such a situation is simply ignore them... 99.9% of the time they will soon leave you alone. Remember, you can always remove the person from your Friend List (they will then no longer be able to add Comments to your Profile page), delete any Comments they leave on your Profile page, and you can even delete any messages they send you via the MySpace Mail system without opening them. By NOT responding to offending user (i.e., NOT giving them any attention, NOT letting them get a "rise" out of you), most people will simply go away. You may also view their profile and click "Block User", which will prevent them from contacting you. Annoying people get bored very fast when you don't allow them to annoy you. If someone threatens you, contact law enforcement immediately.
If you feel threatened, please also read our safety tips here.
If they created a nasty profile about you or someone you know, you can contact customer service (and make sure to include the link to the profile!) here[[http://www.myspace.com/Modules/Help/Pages/HelpCenter.aspx?Category=3&Question=6 |http://www.myspace.com/Modules/Help/Pages/HelpCenter.aspx?Category=3&Question=6 ]]
